Chapter 2071 The Name of the Sage
"The clues are here." After learning about this situation, Lin Jiu looked at the strange plants around him and smiled. His main task was related to the disappeared elemental agent, and the clues appeared in front of him.
"Mr. Devin, the plants in this jungle seem to be more strange than those in other places. Do you have any explanation?" Lin Jiu decisively chose to inquire about the news from the residents of the Cangyue Alliance.
"Oh, this is the Spiritual Forest, a very special place. It is a wonder that appeared about 20 years ago. The time and pattern of its appearance are completely uncertain.
Except that the plants are a little special, no other abnormalities have been found. Over the years, most residents have encountered it. It is a strange landscape here. It is said that people who encounter the Spiritual Forest can have a good dream at night. It is a symbol of good luck. You have just arrived here and encountered it. It seems that you will be lucky." Uncle Devin smiled and introduced the situation of this forest to Lin Jiu.
Sure enough, it is not the original Fantasy Moon Forest. It is now renamed the Spiritual Forest, but there is no difference in essence. They are all clues for Lin Jiu to find Xierlei.
"By the way, who is the sage you are talking about?" Lin Jiu temporarily suppressed his attention to Huanyue Forest and asked about the sage they were talking about.
"That is the great sage of our natural lineage, the Oak Sage." Devin introduced proudly.
Oak Sage? ! If I remember correctly, Qing mentioned this person, and it was a person who was learned from Xierlei during the first elemental catastrophe. The record mentioned that the Oak Sage promoted the harmonious coexistence of natural creatures and became an important figure in the alliance. Is this guy still alive now?
Lin Jiu directly asked the doubts in his heart: "I have seen Oak Sage in books. It seems that he is a figure from more than a thousand years ago. Is he still contributing to the peaceful development of the Cangyue Alliance now?"
When Lin Jiu is not venomous, he is still very talkative. The essence of "still making contributions" in his mouth is, is this old guy still alive?
Devin and other Cangyue residents certainly can't hear the hidden meaning in Lin Jiu's words, and only think that Lin Jiu is surprised. Then he explained that Oak Sage was a title. Only the original Oak Sage was named "Oak". He made great contributions to the development of Cangyue Alliance and was named "Sage".
When the first generation of Oak Sage died, the successor Sage also inherited this title. It is similar to the name of "Sword Eight" in the world of Death God, which is inherited. However, it is not so simple to inherit the name of Sage, unlike the simple and crude inheritance of "Sword Eight".
First of all, you need to make great contributions to Cangyue Alliance, and secondly, you need to have wisdom beyond ordinary people, otherwise you can't be called a Sage at all. In addition, you need the recognition of the previous Sage. If the previous Sage suddenly dies due to some accident, the candidate needs to be recognized by one of the other two lineages of Sages. The last point is that the Sage also needs sufficient strength.
Strength is the lowest requirement to become a Sage, but from another perspective, it is also a basic requirement. The Cangyue Alliance now has three veins: Nature, Thorns, and Spiritualization. Each vein has a sage in charge. In essence, the sage is the leader of their vein. If they are not strong enough, they cannot be the leader at all.
"Someone is coming." Lin Jiu suddenly spoke, looking in one direction. Devin and the others stopped, drew their weapons, and became alert. Although they did not see anyone at all, they still made these movements.
This is not a question of how much they trust Lin Jiu, but to be alert. Even if it is a joke or a misjudgment, they will only waste a little time. But if the enemy really appears, their vigilance can increase their chances of survival. This is a question of weighing the pros and cons. Whether it is a lie or not, be alert first.
Lin Jiu was also quite surprised by the combat quality of Devin and other residents of the Cangyue Alliance. If he guessed correctly, these people were not alliance fighters at all, but residents. Even the residents have this kind of combat quality, which shows the combat effectiveness of these alien races.
Needless to say, in the world where humans exist, unless there is a situation like the Ten Thousand Beasts Continent where all humans are slaughtered, humans are definitely the largest in number. The human power in this world is the Shengyao Empire, where most humans live. Under the huge base, most human residents have little combat power, and only the soldiers who join the army have strong combat capabilities.
The two alien races, the Cangyue Alliance and the Oro Tribe, are different. They have fewer people, which means that even if a resident undergoes simple training, he will have a strong combat power, which forms a situation where everyone is a soldier.
However, Lin Jiu looked at the animal characteristics of the residents of the Cangyue Alliance and couldn't help thinking, aren't these half-orcs? Most of the orcs in the Oro Orc Tribe are beast-like humanoids, while the Cangyue Alliance is mainly humanoid with beast-like characteristics.
This is very similar to the situation of the sub-orcs and orcs in his Sun Legion in the Ten Thousand Beasts Continent. Lin Jiu couldn't help but speculate that perhaps the birth situation is also very similar. The ancestors of the Cangyue Alliance may have been born from the combination of orcs and humans.
He thought of the Oro Alliance saying they wanted revenge on humans, and Lin Jiu suddenly imagined a history in his mind. The orcs and humans were originally close allies, and even combined with each other to give birth to the ancestors of the current Cang Yue Alliance. But one day, humans suddenly betrayed the orc tribe and stabbed them in the back, making the orc tribe hate humans very much.
After the two sides fell out, the ancestors of the Cang Yue Alliance, which was born from the combination of the two sides, were not welcomed by both sides, so they moved to the current Dusk Jungle and developed into an alliance. It must be said that the more you explore the native world, the more active your mind is. With a little thought, Lin Jiu directly made up the reason for the birth of the Cang Yue Alliance.
Lin Jiu can see from the reactions of the residents of Devin that the Dusk Jungle has not been stable recently. But think about it, even if there are no "resurrected" demon creatures, the contractors thrown in by various paradises will also cause a lot of noise in the place where they are.
They should have entered the Yimi Continent at about the same time, so Lin Jiu judged that the movement in the Dusk Jungle is more likely to be related to demon creatures.
However, Lin Jiu can be sure that the visitor has nothing to do with demon creatures, so even if it is the Cang Yue Alliance.
The visitor showed up, with long pink hair, two rabbit ears on his head, agile posture, riding a white deer, carrying a longbow behind him, and appeared in front of the group.
"It's Lord Melo." Devin and the others saw the newcomer and immediately relaxed their guard, greeting the bunny-eared girl enthusiastically.
"This is Melo, the commander of our Twilight Patrol. Lord Melo, this is Chiyou, the traveler who got lost in the Twilight Jungle. We are planning to take him to see the Oak Sage." Devin introduced Lin Jiu and Melo to each other.
"Lord Chiyou, may the stars bless you." Melo nodded at Lin Jiu, exuding goodwill.
"Thank you." After Lin Jiu thanked him, he touched the Yanos World on his arm. He sensed the existence of the power of the world in Melo in front of him. To put it in the words that little Yilin had just said to him, it would be "Girl, you smell so good."
